If you point you browser to http://localhost:8080/ this means you are not using the mod_jk connection, but just the tomcat 5.

To make it work, no port numbers should be in the middle of your address. You should have the apache respond to http://localhost and tomcat to http://localhost/jsp-examples if you followed the manual. I haven´t tried it with apache-tomcat-5.5.17.tar.gz but I will do it as soon as I have some time.

With http://host, I get the main web page that we have developed. so apache web server is working fine. With http://host:8080, I get the default tomcat servlet engine page. Hence even tomcat as a stand alone works fine. I tried http://host/jsp-examples, and got an Apache Tomcat error report, "HTTP status 404". Is there any other way to verify whether the apache web server and the tomcat servlet engine both communicate with one another?

I am waiting to get 'whitelisted' by one of the guys to that I can add the Howto here. Though this here article by fernandoch, it never hurts to read a couple different Howto's to get as much info as possible.
